“The Church is the mirror that reflects the whole effulgence of the Divine character. It is the grand scene of the display of the Divine Perfections. The revelations made to the Church– the successive grand events in her history– and, above all– the manifestation of the Divine glory in the Person of the Son of God, furnish even to the heavenly intelligences fresh subjects of adoring contemplation.”
–Charles Bridges, The Christian Ministry (Edinburgh: Banner of Truth Trust, 2005), 1.
